Man, that sucker's been in the cue a week now. & it's a picture
perfect book now if ever there was 1. I had some help from Jamie Y cuz
the pagination was totally fu bar & my optacon's still toast. There
were a lot of junk characters, too, which I cleaned out plus a few
corrected scannos. Other than the pagination & the junk characters it
was a reasonably good scan. But the pagination would have caused the
book to be rejected had Jamie not helped.
I hope u will get to read it b4 Xmas cuz I think it's a real heart warmer.
